As some of you know, I've been trying to insert a QuickTime movie via
AppleScript to a FM 5.5 database without success. After receiving
help from a couple of helpful scripters on the list, one of whom even
tested my database, I am still stuck with the problem.
FileMaker complains that the file is the wrong type anytime I try to
insert it with AppleScript; however, when I try manually, FileMaker
takes it beautifully. When Ehsan, from the list, tried on his system
(configured differently than mine), it worked for him using my
database, my script, and my movie!
So the next step is to find someone who would willing to run this
same scenario on their machine. The movie is a very small sample
(28kb uncompressed), the database is only a collection of a few
fields, and the script is about four lines long.
I would appreciate if someone would be kind enough to run this test
on their machine and tell me what happens to them. I'm running OS X
(latest version, Jaguar), and FileMaker Pro 5.5v2, and would like
for the tester to come as close as possible to this configuration.
If you are willing to try it, please let me know off list, and I'll
send you the files directly. I will be very grateful!!
Max
